A good Friend of Unfair Park sent us a few photos this morning in a missive headlined: “UFO Over SMU?” Our Friend writes, “We have noticed this round black UFO flying low over SMU the past few days from our office at Lovers and Central. Think any Friends might know what it is?” There’s another, longer-distance photo after the jump for context.
Alas, fret not, as I asked SMU’s director of media relations, the great Robert Bobo, what the what that danged thing is. He responds:
People of Dallas:
Be not afraid. We come in peace.
